What happened to the days of making a car ad that didn't suck. Pictures are free to upload. It's not hard to write up a description.

When I see an ad that Boris posted, I usually don't even waste time reading it

The worst offenders are people that screenshot their instagram photos and put them in their ad

Same 91 red 318is now in Chicago and up for quick flip at higher price? Old post is gone and the mileage is the same.

 unless those photos are of a different car, then no. The one in Tosa had clear fog lights next to the brake ducts, and the rear passenger bumper shroud was crumpled in and rusted. I still have the pics that the seller privately emailed to me. 

Just a good time to be looking for a brilliantrot 91 318is  I guess

Funny thing is, this was listed for $700 located in Waukesha awhile back. Now its listed for $1500 in Hartford.

Really nice e34 540i/6, is this price crazy or are they really worth that much?

If it's a true M sport which it appears to be then there were something like 200 of these made.  I can't remember the exact number but it's really rare to find one, especially in such great shape.  So yes, this price is about what people are asking but i'm not sure what they're actually selling for.

[straight6pwr]

Yeah Msport. Pointless car, really.

It was a final sendoff of the e34 chassis. Its basically an m5 with the m60 instead of the s38.  A lot of extra weight, a lot of extra complexity, and you don't get the s38.

A regular 540i/6 with suspension upgraded and m5 front/rear bumpers is a much better value, as it is 99% the performance and looks.

[RobZR]

Dan beat me to it ^ but,

This isn't your ordinary 540i/6 this one is a 540i sport  (m-sport CAN) 1 of ~225 specials made to appease the us market since we didn't get M5. these were fitted with all the suspension and EDC gear of the Euro M5 but with a M60 V8 instead of the S38, and due to liability concerns US cars got 1pc rotors while the CAN cars got the M5 floating rotors .  These are getting rare in this condition and mileage, but it still was no M5.  The EDC systems are NLA so many have been converted to standard shocks, removing the main difference of the model, leaving just another 540i/6 with some nice M5 parts.  

These are the Rodney Dangerfield of the E34 world.  They are shunned by the M5 crowd since it's missing the S38, and collectably they are just another E34.

This one looks in nice shape, but unless it's completely original it's not worth the price he's asking. That's Enthusiast Auto Pricing.

 With the mileage it has it's probably due for whole E34 refresh.

Its still a pretty awesome car minus the boring silver(don't hate me for my opinion). I'm sure some purist somewhere would pay at least $12k for it.

At the very least someone could get a great price on an e92 M3.

How about that flossman widebody!

i'd really like the kit if it didnt have those giant vents on the back of the fenders.

[patsbimmer1]

I agree.  They look misplaced and cheap.

yea the kid who owns this car works (or used to work) at the Jimmy Johns in Delafield - i haven't seen him there in over a month. I saw him there many times this summer, he'd always compliment me on my cars when I rolled up in either the E30 or the 1er. Nice kid. 

He once told me that another dude came in an M3 and was saying how there is some piece of shit 5-series in the parking lot. Kid was like "that's my car" and the dude with the M3 says "ah, sorry bro but I can't say anything good about that. That thing is a piece of shit"
